Straight Talk on Replacing Thousands of Hard Disks with Just One Solid State ...LeviNorman
In this webinar, SSD (solid-state disk) and application performance expert Jamon Bowen will examine the various types of SSD and how they align with application architectures and deployment models. He will examine how performance, cost, and feature sets impact deployments of SSD in today's evolving datacenters. In short, this webinar will demystify SSD and help you make informed architectural choices to fulfill your performance needs.

In this webinar join experts from Storage Switzerland and Tegile to discover if the All-Flash Data Center can become reality. We will explore the return on investment that All-Flash systems can deliver, like increase user and virtual machine densities, lower drive counts and simpler storage architectures. We will also look at some of the methods that All-Flash systems employ to deliver an acceptable cost per GB like thin provisioning, clones, deduplication and compression. Finally we will take one last look at disk, does it have a role in the All-Flash Data Center and if it does what should that role be?
I wanted introduce a great new solid state disk called the USSDs. Our just announced USSDs sets a new milestone for the most performance in the smallest space.`
Our single solid state disk can handle about 250 times more small block random I/O's per second than a hard disk drive. That is, 250 disk drives would be needed to perform the same amount of work as one SSD.
Learn how upcoming changes in the persistent memory market will affect deployments of in-memory computing and traditional applications. Using software innovations from SanDisk and the broad portfolio of flash storage hardware options, customers and developers can optimize applications for “flash extended memory”, the intersection of in-memory computing and persistent memory technologies.

Backup systems are being asked to do things they were never designed for - and it’s killing them. Join experts from Storage Switzerland and NEC as they discuss the four assumptions that are killing backup storage:
* Assuming backup is an archive
* Assuming it can grow forever
* Assuming it can support production applications
* Assuming deduplication won’t impact recovery
You’ll come away with strategies that could save your backup system from the changes that threaten to overwhelm it.

Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform is the only 3D scaling storage platform designed for all data types. It is the only storage architecture that flexibly adapts for performance, capacity and multivendor storage. Combined with unique Hitachi Command Suite management software, it transforms the data center.
The flash market started out monolithically. Flash was a single media type (high performance, high endurance SLC flash). Flash systems also had a single purpose of accelerating the response time of high-end databases. But now there are several flash options. Users can choose between high performance flash or highly dense, medium performance flash systems. At the same time, high capacity hard disk drives are making a case to be the archival storage medium of choice. How does an IT professional choose?

By now, Tier 1 apps deployed on flash is ubiquitous. However, Tier 2 apps often remain relegated to spinning media. This presentation explains the economics of consolidating on flash. Owing to the SQL Server core licensing model, licensing a 2-socket commodity server can cost up to $500,000 or more! Consolidating instances on flash can—and does—save hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars. This presentation provides real-life case studies showing such real-life savings.
Webinar: Getting Beyond Flash 101 - Flash 102 Selecting the Right Flash ArrayStorage Switzerland
Join Storage Switzerland and Data Direct Networks (DDN) for this on demand webinar: "Getting Beyond Flash 101 - Flash 102 Selecting the Right Flash Array”. We discuss the different types of flash storage and compare them, why vendors want to replace your SAN instead of enhance it and what you can do to not only protect your current storage investments but also prepare a path to the future.

Everyday Opportunities for Inclusion & Collaboration - OSSNA 2018Erik Riedel
talk on mentoring, inclusion, and collaboration - given by Nithya Ruff (Comcast) and Erik Riedel (Works Together) at the 2018 Open Source Summit NA in Vancouver, Canada
= Abstract =
Do you feel left out or uncomfortable at the company Christmas Party? Do you avoid the “water cooler” and try to limit your interactions to "business only"? Do you find many such business-social interactions fraught with potential landmines and opportunities for exclusion or misunderstanding? Do you see colleagues excluded or unable to participate when activities are informal, under-structured, or ill-organized?
A study in the NY Times from 2017 highlights how many of us are wary of the way professionals socializes today.
This session will present a set of specific examples and stories from our direct experience of some of the less obvious opportunities for communication, networking, learning, mentoring, and collaboration that are presented by ongoing day-job activities as well as thru outside events and forums.
Since much of successful mentoring and collaboration occurs informally, there are many unidentified or difficult-to-see barriers that can create missed opportunities. We believe that the desire to assist each other and collaborate is often present but unrealized. We will provide some examples of lowering the "activation energy" for such positive interactions and creating an equality of opportunity for colleagues and team members.
The examples we discuss are applicable to individual contributor (IC) employees, to leaders and managers (bosses), and to anyone with a job description OR a personal passion that includes mentoring or collaboration. These issues are not limited to technology workers or open source projects, but we believe that there are unique opportunities in these realms that are sometimes hidden or easily overlooked.
The target audience for this talk is anyone with a significant ability to impact both technical and cultural aspects of their work and workplace; they might be an explicit people leader or manager; they might be an experienced engineer that is expected - explicitly or implicitly - to mentor less experienced staff; they might be an engineer that wishes they could have more impact - either technical or cultural - on their work or workplace and just can’t figure out how to do it. they might be an individual who is having trouble getting promoted, or just have trouble “fitting in”.

- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Stunning
• “The
amount
of
Mme
the
virtual
machine
is
stunned
is
dependent
on
the
amount
of
memory
to
be
wrilen
to
disk
for
such
an
operaMon,
and
the
speed
and
responsiveness
of

13. What
About
Tape?
• Tapes
are
not
a
commodity
technology
• 2011
total
worldwide
market
for
tape
cartridges
is
about
8m
units
(just
under
$1b
annual
revenue)
• Compare
to
the
HDD
business
at
650m
units
in
2010
(close
to
$40b
annual
revenue)
• 80
disk
drives
are
manufactured
for
each
tape
cartridge;
robots
are
complicated
• Fits
parMcular
applicaMon
segments
very
well,
but
is
not
a
general-‐purpose
soluMon

14. Conclusion
• About
80%
of
stored
data
will
never
be
accessed
again
• About
80%
of
the
rest
will
be
accessed
predictably
• That
leaves
(maybe)
4%
of
stored
data
that
potenMally
requires
“quick”
random
access
15. PragmaMc
Issues
• Power
– if
the
data
is
predictably
idle,
then
don’t
spin
it
• Wearout
– look
at
the
data
occasionally
(once/month,
once/yr);
such
access
for
“scrubbing”
is
very
predictable
• Backup
– backup
1)
is
not
an
“applicaMon”
and
2)
is
predictable
• ReplicaMon
– esMmates
run
to
75%
of
stored
data
is
copies/replicas,
only
25%
unique
bytes;
replicaMon
is
predictable
